Our Grants Management team provides grantees with technical assistance to maintain compliance so grantees can focus on their goals to improve the lives of Texans with developmental disabilities. Knowing the many complexities of managing a federally funded grant, we’re excited to offer the annual Grantee Summit to help grantees manage their projects and engage with peers from across Texas. During this virtual event, grantees meet with TCDD staff, expert speakers, and each other to connect, collaborate, and advance their grant management skills.
For more grant management resources and training, visit our Grantee Resource Center, where you can download the TCDD Grants Manual as well as budget and program forms, find links to submit quarterly reports and surveys; view how-to videos on various grant-related topics; and more.
The Zoom recording includes all sessions of the 2024 Grantee Summit program except for the networking breakout groups, which were not recorded. To start at the beginning of a specific session, use the links in the following list (video will open in YouTube).
